This crazy-funny gif by Kirill Beerlove is great with or without the sound. It was made with Vine, an app for making looping videos. Serious possibilities there…

Read MoreJuno Spacecraft’s View: Me and You on Earth, the Moon Around Us
We love this gif and video of what the Juno Spacecraft saw from a distance of 600,000 miles when it the passed Earth about six weeks ago, and what it/we would look like from a visitor afar. A perfect perspective to start the day.

Aging, in oneself or one’s surroundings, is nearly impossible to see until, suddenly, it has already happened.

We recently stumbled on Serbian artist ABVH‘s GIFs that animate famous outdoor artworks by Banksy. This one makes us incredibly ANXIOUS (a powerful emotion); the GIF animation turns up the volume on Banksy’s original message. It made us think about what we REALLY need reminding of: to stop, slow down. What would be…
